Chapter 105: Chen Hao's Combat Prowess Shocks All-America! taylor!

Inside the police station, David Stern and Angie finally understood the full story and the final outcome of the incident.

Upon learning the truth, they fell into complete silence.

Even the lawyer Stern brought with him had a very strange expression after learning the final result.

He hadn't expected the outcome to be the players completely unharmed, while the attacking Fans suffered widespread injuries.

And all of them were injured by Chen Hao alone!

This already sounded absurd enough, but it was the truth.

However, looking at the matter from a lawyer's perspective, he didn't think Chen Hao's problem was very big.

After all, Chen Hao was forced to fight back only when he was under personal threat; this type of self-defensive counterattack provided excellent protection for Chen Hao.

So, Chen Hao's issue should not be major. As for still assisting with the investigation, it was mainly because the police department needed a detailed statement to deal with the media reporters outside.

Just then, the Chief's subordinate informed him that all materials were ready, and a press conference could be held at any time to announce the detailed situation.

After listening, the Chief nodded with a sense of relief, then said to David Stern and Angie:

"The statements have been recorded!

You may all leave now!

However, if there are any further questions later on.

We will still trouble the relevant personnel.

We hope you understand!"

The players nodded silently, then prepared to leave the police station.

And Chen Hao, who had been questioned all night, finally appeared before everyone.

There was no trace of fatigue on Chen Hao's face; he was as calm and composed as ever.

Even the Chief was filled with emotion when he saw Chen Hao's expression.

This guy's psychological quality was truly excellent. From the beginning to the end of the interrogation, his expression remained unchanged, and his emotions didn't fluctuate much.

From start to finish, he calmly narrated the events and even proactively told the police that he had to act because these people were truly too dangerous.

If he didn't launch a strong and powerful counterattack against them, he worried that these Fans might harm his teammates and Head Coach.

Moreover, the Chief clearly saw that Chen Hao only threw one punch at each Fan, never following up with another.

This alone proved how confident Chen Hao was in his own strength.

Therefore, the Chief had already realized then that these Fans attacking Chen Hao was simply the worst luck they could have.

They themselves didn't know that the outcome would be so tragic. Now, not only were they seriously injured, but they also faced accusations.

As for Chen Hao, although he was the one who injured people, his actions were all passive self-defense, so he did not break the law.

When all members of the Boston Celtics appeared at the entrance of the police station, it instantly caused a sensation among everyone present.

Especially the media reporters who were staking out there, they swarmed forward frantically.

They were eager to know the truth of the matter and also hoped that the police could announce the detailed course of events.

And Chen Hao's confidantes also kept looking towards the Boston Celtics, trying to find Chen Hao's figure.

Soon, they found Chen Hao in the crowd.

When they confirmed that Chen Hao had no injuries on him, they finally felt much relieved.

The Chief of the police station here signaled everyone to calm down, as he was about to make an announcement about the situation.

As for all members of the Boston Celtics, they could also leave first!

So, the reporters split into two groups: one part went to report on the police station's situation briefing.

The other part was to interview the parties involved and see what the Boston Celtics players had to say.

It was just that the Boston Celtics players were already deeply exhausted at this time, and they didn't want to accept any interviews at all.

After refusing interviews, they quickly boarded the team bus.

Only Chen Hao, after greeting the Head Coach, walked towards the car of his confidantes who were waiting for him.

Rivers did not blame Chen Hao for this action.

In fact, it was thanks to Chen Hao's combat prowess that the team remained unharmed.

Reporters still wanted to get some useful information from Chen Hao, but Chen Hao just smiled and quipped:

"Actually, it's very simple.

It was just a group of fanatical Fans who attacked us.

They tried to make us suffer some hardship.

But their combat prowess was simply no match.

So the result was that they went to the hospital.

And we were unharmed!"

After speaking, Chen Hao directly got into the car taylorhad driven, signaling her to leave first.

Of course, Chen Hao also greeted his other confidantes, telling them to return to the hotel first and that he would contact them later.

Seeing Chen Hao actively get into taylor's car, the others were somewhat displeased.

Especially Daddario, she even muttered softly:

"That guy's chest isn't even half as big as mine, why does she get Chen Hao's attention first?"

Although some jealousy arose in their hearts, they still obediently followed Chen Hao's instructions and drove away one after another.

No choice, who made Chen Hao's tungsten-titanium alloy microphone truly so magical?

Every female star who had sung with Chen Hao's tungsten-titanium alloy microphone said it was good; this was truly a joy that not just anyone could experience.

So, now that Chen Hao's safety was confirmed, their focus had already shifted to other parts of Chen Hao's body.

Since they had already come, how could they leave without having some fun?

After all, Chen Hao's combat prowess was not ordinary; otherwise, they wouldn't have been conquered by Chen Hao.

After Chen Hao and the others had all left, the entrance of the entire police station returned to its usual calm.

Apart from the reporters and the Chief, no one else was present.

And the Chief also announced the entire course of the incident. The reporters, upon learning the truth, were equally shocked into silence for a long time.

And this incident report was broadcast live on television.

Thus, news of Chen Hao, attacked by numerous Detroit Pistons Fans and emerging unscathed, quickly spread across the internet.

When netizens learned that Chen Hao alone had knocked down all the Detroit Pistons Fans who attacked him, the entire social network completely erupted!

Almost all netizens were demanding the same thing, which was to see the video of Chen Hao taking on a group of netizens.

This was the most important thing!

After all, words alone are not enough; pictures and truth are needed to convince everyone.

So, with the concerted efforts of netizens, the video of Chen Hao taking on this group of fanatical Fanseventually circulated online!

And the protagonist of the incident, Chen Hao, was currently exchanging 'ball skills' with taylor.

"Hey, you've been singing with my tungsten-titanium alloy microphone for two hours!

Can't you take a break?"

Looking at taylor, who was full of enjoyment, Chen Hao, lying on the bed, had a helpless expression.

Actually, during these two hours,

Chapter 106: Facing 58, Laurence, the Big Sister, Watches Live! Another Challenger Appears on the Street Court!

While Chen Hao and taylor were honing their basketball skills, the news of Chen Hao's battle with the Pistons Fans had already been posted on social media.

The scene of Chen Hao chasing and beating the PistonsFans was made public!

This completely deterred those arrogant Fans, who realized that Chen Hao was truly very different from ordinary NBA players.

This guy's combat power was simply too terrifying; facing the encirclement of so many Fans, he easily took them down all by himself.

In the end, he even chased these Fans for two kilometers until they were completely terrified.

Chen Hao's actions truly brought a great sense of relief to the Boston Celtics Fans.

Moreover, the local Detroit police also announced their decision regarding Chen Hao: because he acted in self-defense, he would not be prosecuted.

This was in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.

As for the Fans who were hospitalized by Chen Hao's punches, they could only consider themselves unlucky.

Even the local Detroit residents believed these Fansdeserved it.

Because they were punished by the NBA, the Pistons' home games would be played in an empty arena for ten games, which was a punishment for their Fans.

Such an incident, where Fans surrounded and attacked an opposing player, had an extremely negative impact.

If they weren't punished, who would dare to play an away game there in the future?

It was also fortunate that they surrounded the Boston Celtics; if it had been another team, it could have very likely resulted in significant casualties.

David Stern was truly quite scared afterward, but at the same time, he greatly admired Chen Hao's actions.

Therefore, after this matter was resolved, David Sterneven specifically praised Chen Hao's behavior.

He believed that Chen Hao's actions protected the safety of his teammates and prevented more egregious acts.

Chen Hao, who had received praise from the Commissioner, had now arrived in New Orleans, as they were about to challenge the Hornets in an away game.

Chen Hao was no stranger to the Hornets of this era, as this team had the "King of Bees" Chris Paul and David West.

Of course, there was also "Iron Mike" Tyson Chandler, familiar to Dragon Country Fans.

Actually, the Hornets' roster at this time was not weak.

But for some unknown reason, their record was very poor; since the start of the new season, their record was third from the bottom in the Western Conference.

Therefore, the Hornets' performance greatly disappointed their Fans.

And today they were facing the Boston Celtics, and almost no one believed the Hornets could win.

This was Chen Hao's first game after the incident where he single-handedly took on numerous Detroit PistonsFans.

Therefore, this game was also broadcast live.

For the Hornets, this was clearly a rare opportunity to gain exposure.

After all, almost none of their games throughout the season were broadcast All-America, and they could only rely on popular teams to attract attention.

Thus, the Hornets' players all cherished this live broadcast opportunity and did not want to lose this game.

Especially Chris Paul, he was even more determined to win this game.

He even confidently stated in a media interview:

"Although you all say they are very strong."

"But I've watched their game footage."

"To be honest, they're not as strong as imagined."

"And as a point guard, I am confident I can blow up the entire Boston Celtics backcourt!"

Paul's words instantly excited the Hornets Fans.

Although the Hornets' record was abysmal, Paul's performance had always been consistent and outstanding.

Especially as a point guard, his offensive organization was quite seasoned and steady.

Therefore, Paul's assists consistently ranked in the top three in the league.

And currently, the one in first place was his opponent in this game, Chen Hao.

But in Paul's view, Chen Hao was just a player who liked to play physically, with no real skill to speak of.

Moreover, Paul believed that Chen Hao's playing style was very similar to his brother James.

Both were players who liked to attack the paint to create scoring opportunities, and Paul had many ways to deal with such players.

After all, his defensive moves weren't exactly clean; sometimes he even liked to trip opponents.

And Paul was determined to win this game.

So, at the start of the game, Paul made specific demands of his teammates, hoping they would stay focused and give their all.

The Hornets' players naturally agreed to Paul's demands.

After all, Paul's strength at this time was still very formidable.

And almost every player needed to wait for Paul to feed them the ball.

If he didn't pass, they wouldn't even have a chance to score.

Many Fans were following this game, including the post-90s generation actress Jennifer Lawrence.

Having just turned eighteen, she paid close attention to NBA games, and Chen Hao's sudden emergence particularly caught her attention.

When she saw Chen Hao dominating in Detroit, her heart was equally excited.

Chen Hao's image perfectly matched her fantasy of a man, so she was now completely captivated by Chen Hao.

When she learned that Chen Hao would be playing in New Orleans, she became even more excited!

Because her filming location was in New Orleans, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

So Laurence immediately spent a large sum of money to buy a front-row ticket to watch Chen Hao play live.

She had already decided that she would find every possible way to get Chen Hao's autograph.

If possible, it would be best to take a photo with him as a souvenir.

This would not only fulfill her wish but also gain more attention for herself.

Chen Hao was now an All-America athlete, recognized not only by NBA Fans, but anyone with even a slight interest in sports knew of Chen Hao's existence.

Some American netizens even respectfully referred to Chen Hao as "NBA One-Punch Man," because every time he struck, he always knocked out his opponent with a single punch, never needing a follow-up!

The Charlotte Hornets' home arena was packed, a large portion of the Fans came because of Paul's confident statements.

Because they also wanted to see how Paul would "drill" Chen Hao.

When Chen Hao appeared, a huge boo immediately erupted, but Chen Hao's expression remained unchanged.

At the same time, the live camera also gave a huge close-up of Jennifer Lawrence courtside.

When her image appeared on the big screen above the court, Chen Hao was also stunned for a moment:

"She's actually here?"

Then, Chen Hao noticed that Laurence was wearing his jersey.

Good heavens, she's wearing his jersey in another team's home arena, this woman is quite bold!

And Laurence, who was given a close-up, upon realizing the camera was on her, immediately excitedly pulled up the number on her jersey.

Her action was undoubtedly telling everyone that she was there to watch Chen Hao play.

At this, the Hornets Fans were displeased.

Immediately, a huge boo erupted for her, but Laurencehad a big smile on her face, completely unfazed by the boos.

Chris Paul also clearly saw this scene, and his expression turned gloomy because of it.

"Very good, the more your Fan shows off, the more painful it will be for her when I blow you out!"

Chapter 107: Eat, Sleep, and Beat Paul! Dunking over Chandler and West, Laurence was stunned!

Under Laurence's cheers, the game officially began!

The Hornets' starting lineup was: Chris Paul, David West, Tyson Chandler, Peja Stojaković, and Bonzi Wells.

As for the Celtics, their starting lineup remained unchanged.

Chen Hao still held the starting position at shooting guard for the team.

Actually, while Chen Hao was said to be the starting shooting guard, in reality, he was the initiator of the offense.

The ball was almost always in his hands, so he was matched up against Paul.

Chen Hao's height gave him a distinct advantage over Paul.

So, the commentators on site also joked at this moment:

"We all know Chris isn't tall, so I'm curious, how will he manage to dominate Chen Hao?"

Another commentator, after hearing him, laughed and replied:

"It's not your first day knowing Chris!

This guy's dribbling skills are incredibly solid.

He loves to 'military train' others!

Especially when he's mismatched against a bigger player on the opposing team.

He can make you question life in minutes!

And while Chen Hao's defensive ability is excellent, against someone as fast as Chris, he really might not be able to keep up!"

As the two home commentators finished their remarks, the jump ball was already completed!

With Chandler's height and leaping ability, he easily tipped the ball into Paul's hands!

The Hornets attacked first!

The moment Paul received the ball, he started observing his teammates' movements!

And David West was undoubtedly one of the players who got into the game fastest!

He quickly surged into the frontcourt paint, and Paul quickly chose a through pass!

This was his style of play; as long as a teammate was in position, his pass would follow!

Little did he know, just as Paul thought his pass would accurately reach David West, a figure burst out from mid-route!

He directly intercepted the basketball!

It was none other than Chen Hao!

Paul's expression became very shocked when he saw Chen Hao complete the steal!

He had clearly observed Chen Hao's position when he passed the ball.

He and his passing lane were quite far apart!

How did he manage to complete the steal so quickly?

Although Paul was very shocked, he still quickly got back on defense immediately.

He had watched many of Chen Hao's game tapes and knew that Chen Hao loved to play these fast-break offenses!

But for Paul, he feared this kind of fast-break offense the least.

Because he was very fast, he could get back on defense immediately.

Moreover, he had a good knack for drawing offensive fouls from opponents.

After all, his body was relatively slender compared to traditional NBA players.

And at this moment, he was naturally preparing to draw an offensive foul from Chen Hao!

So he immediately blocked Chen Hao's path!

Paul knew that Chen Hao's physical prowess was explosive, so he didn't dare to gamble; instead, he chose to stick directly to Chen Hao's body.

The advantage of doing this was that if Chen Hao wanted to completely shake him off, he would definitely need to exert force to push him away.

As soon as Chen Hao exerted force to push him away, he would immediately fall to the ground, feigning being pushed over by Chen Hao.

This way, the referee would naturally deem Chen Hao's offense an offensive foul!

Paul's move had been tried and true many times.

Moreover, while drawing offensive fouls from opponents, he wouldn't shy away from subtle actions, even enjoying some dirty tricks to get into his opponents' heads.

And that's exactly what he was doing now!

When Chen Hao quickly dribbled to the top of the arc, Paul had already quickly closed in.

Just as Paul thought Chen Hao would force his way through him, he was surprised to find Chen Hao directly chose to stop and retreat!

Watching Chen Hao slowly dribble backward, Paul was momentarily unsure of what Chen Hao intended to do.

At the same time, the other Hornets players had all gotten back on defense.

Chen Hao actually gave up such a great fast-break opportunity, which was indeed a bit puzzling.

However, the Hornets Fans cheered loudly at this moment.

Clearly, in their eyes, Chen Hao's reluctance to attack proactively this time was due to Paul's defense.

And the commentators on site also joked:

"This doesn't seem like Chen Hao's style!

Is he also wary of Chris's defense?"

Just as the commentators finished speaking, they saw Chen Hao start to dribble and move!

Chen Hao didn't ask for any screens this time; he directly gestured for his teammates to spread out!

This meant he wanted to challenge Paul one-on-one!

When Paul saw Chen Hao's action, a look of disdain appeared on his face.

Throughout the entire league, many players tried to beat him one-on-one, but very few succeeded.

Paul was short, had a low center of gravity, and was quick with his hands.

So he was always able to quickly steal the ball from players attempting to challenge him one-on-one, even completing quick counterattacks.

And at this moment, he was eagerly anticipating Chen Hao dribbling past him!

Chen Hao fulfilled his wish!

Chen Hao lowered his center of gravity and began continuous between-the-legs dribbles!

Chen Hao dribbled in front of Paul, and Paul's eyes were fixed on the basketball in Chen Hao's hands; he didn't make a move immediately.

Because he was observing Chen Hao's next dribbling movement!

Just at this moment!

Chen Hao suddenly made a large-scale change of direction, seemingly intending to forcefully shake Paul off!

Paul smiled!

He had seen through Chen Hao's dribble!

So he confidently reached out, trying to steal the basketball from Chen Hao's hands!

However, the next moment, Paul's face showed a shocked expression!

Because his attempt missed!

Not only did he fail to steal the ball from Chen Hao, but he was also directly played by Chen Hao!

Chen Hao's change of direction was too fast; after he completed it, Paul's center of gravity was already lost!

Chen Hao could have directly driven to the inside, but he dribbled back in front of Paul again!

Just as Paul was surprised by Chen Hao's dribble, Chen Hao's next move directly made Paul's expression incredibly ferocious!

Because Chen Hao actually passed the ball directly between his legs!

Chen Hao actually used a nutmeg dribble on Paul!

This was blatant provocation and humiliation!

What made Paul even angrier was that he hadn't been able to react in time!

He only reacted after the basketball had already passed between his legs!

Paul was enraged; he absolutely wouldn't allow anyone to nutmeg him!

This was something he did to others; it was impossible for others to use it against him!

So, Paul reached back to commit a fierce foul on Chen Hao!

Little did he know, when he reached back to foul Chen Hao, he missed again!

Under Paul's gaze, Chen Hao quickly drove into the paint, leaping high against the defense of Chandler and West!

A powerful tomahawk dunk directly sent both of them flying while slamming the basketball into the hoop!

The entire arena of Fans instantly became incredibly quiet!

And Laurence, in turn, instantly jumped up from her seat in excitement, wildly twisting her body, cheering Chen Hao on!

Chapter 108: Chen Hao's Number One Fan, Laurence, Gives the Middle Finger to Hornets Fans! How Interesting!

Chen Hao's nutmeg on Paul and his poster dunks over Chandler and West completely silenced the Charlotte Hornets' home Stadium!

After accomplishing all of this, Chen Hao gracefully landed from the rim, looking calm and collected, then glanced at Chandler and West.

Finally, Chen Hao just shook his head calmly, looking disappointed.

This expression combined with this action was the greatest humiliation for the Charlotte Hornets players.

Chandler and West almost coughed up blood from anger when they saw Chen Hao's demeanor.

Just as they were about to confront Chen Hao, they noticed Chen Hao making an extremely insulting gesture towards Paul.

He extended his palm downwards, bent over, and pressed his hand down towards Paul's ankle.

This implied that Paul's skill level was only that high!

Paul, already extremely irritated from being nutmegged by Chen Hao, was now being subjected to such an insulting gesture?

Who the hell could tolerate that?

So, Paul walked directly up to Chen Hao and stared intensely into his eyes.

However, due to the significant height difference between him and Chen Hao, the confrontation looked somewhat comical.

Just then, a remark from Chen Hao completely broke Paul's composure!

"Actually, if you're not tall enough, you can always stand on your tiptoes!"

Paul shoved Chen Hao hard!

To Paul's surprise, Chen Hao didn't make any defensive moves.

He just let Paul's hands push against his body!

At first, Paul couldn't understand why Chen Hao was so calm, but he realized the seriousness of the situation when he felt like his hands were pushing against a bronze wall of iron!

Don't let Paul's short stature fool you; his strength is quite impressive.

Among the shorter point guards in the NBA, Paul's upper body is actually quite developed.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to survive among the NBA's guards.

Yet, this strong Paul, using all his strength, couldn't push Chen Hao!

This was truly unbelievable!

Seeing this, the referee rushed over and pulled Paul aside.

Another referee even stood in front of Chen Hao, fearing he might retaliate against Paul.

After all, Chen Hao's fierce reputation was well-known throughout the NBA; almost everyone who had provoked him had met with a bad end.

Therefore, the referee also didn't want the situation to escalate to an irreversible point.

However, from Chen Hao's expression, he didn't seem angry at all.

Instead, he proactively comforted the referee, saying:

"Hey, ref, I won't be impulsive.

After all, that guy looks just like a kid.

How could I possibly have a problem with a kid?

He doesn't seem to have eaten!

He's very weak!"

Although Chen Hao's words were directed at the referee, Paul and the other Charlotte Hornets players all heard them!

At this, Paul's expression became even more ferocious!

"Damn guy!

What are you saying!"

Even the referee standing in front of Chen Hao was left speechless by Chen Hao's words.

Because his words were truly too provoking!

Chen Hao's trash talk was indeed deadly, even breaking the composure of the usually calm Paul.

Seeing Paul's angry look, Chen Hao smiled, spread his hands, and said:

"I have a high tolerance for kids!

But just don't cry when I blow you out later!

Otherwise, that would really be ugly!"

With these heart-stabbing words, Paul was practically grinding his molars.

"Ref, did you hear what he said?

This guy is deliberately mocking me!"

The referee was quite speechless by Paul's reaction:

"You're not a rookie anymore.

Isn't trash talk on the court normal?

You've trash-talked opponents plenty, haven't you?"

The referee's retort almost caused Paul internal injury; he even suspected that Chen Hao had bribed the referee.

Ultimately, this conflict was resolved without further action due to the referee's intervention.

Of course, since Paul initiated the physical contact, the referee still called a technical foul on him as a warning.

Paul was extremely displeased with this technical foul, but he could only vent his frustration on the court.

Both teams entered a timeout, and a sideline reporter specifically conducted an immediate interview with Laurence.

"Hey, Jennifer, it's rare to see you at an NBA game. What's the reason for your attendance today?"

"Oh, yes!

I rarely attend NBA games in person.

But today is different because the Boston Celtics are playing.

And my favorite star, Chen Hao, is playing today!

So, I came for him!"

Laurence's words instantly shocked the reporter and the Fans in the Stadium.

They hadn't expected Laurence to come for Chen Hao; this was the Charlotte Hornets' home Stadium, after all!

Chen Hao's Boston Celtics were playing an away game, and under these circumstances, Laurence openly stating she came for Chen Hao was clearly challenging the emotions of the home Fans!

Sure enough, after a brief shock, the entire Stadiumerupted in loud boos.

In their eyes, Laurence was deliberately mocking them!

This was unforgivable!

"Hey, bitch! Shut your stinking mouth!"

"Fuck you! Damn bitch!"

"Alright, you've successfully angered me. You'd better not go out alone at night!"

"Why don't we just ambush her after the game and let her experience the might of our big baby!"

"Hey, bitch, want to taste my big baby?"

The Charlotte Hornets Fans hurled all sorts of obscenities at Laurence because she had broken their composure!

However, Laurence didn't take the Charlotte HornetsFans' trash talk to heart at all; she even gave the home Fans the middle finger!

Goodness gracious!

Even the reporter was stunned by Laurence's gesture!

This was too audacious!

This was the Charlotte Hornets' home Stadium!

Laurence actually dared to make such an insulting gesture in someone else's home Stadium?

She was truly going to completely offend the home Fans!

At the same time, Laurence giving the middle finger to the Fans in the Stadium was captured by the camera!

Soon, Laurence's gesture appeared on the big screen!

At this, the entire home Stadium was in an uproar!

All the Fans greeted Laurence with various 'friendly' remarks, and the live camera even zoomed in on Laurence, giving her a huge close-up.

It was a timeout, so players from both teams had time to see what was happening on the home big screen.

For the Charlotte Hornets players, Laurence's action was truly too much!

Especially Paul, who was still fuming; seeing Laurence's gesture made him even more irritable!

"Damn bitch! I really want to press her hard on the ground and rub her!"

Paul cursed under his breath.

Meanwhile, the Boston Celtics players were all laughing, even loudly applauding Laurence's actions.

Even Chen Hao, seeing Laurence's middle finger gesture, couldn't help but slightly curve his lips!

"This woman is quite interesting!"

Chapter 109: Chris Paul's 'Cannon Punch' Warning? Then Crush His Hand and Win by 58 Points!

Under Laurence's taunts, the Hornets' home Fans became incredibly agitated.

What they wanted to see most at that moment was Chris Paul leading his team to thoroughly humiliate the Celtics, making them understand the consequences of provoking the Charlotte Hornets.

The Hornets' players were also extremely angry; what they wanted to do most at that moment was to defeat the Boston Celtics!

Therefore, Laurence's remarks and actions successfully enraged all the Hornets' players.

From the perspective of Celtics Head Coach Rivers, this was truly not a good thing.

However, for the Celtics' players, this was not a big deal at all; in fact, they were even looking forward to the upcoming game.

After the timeout, the game continued!

Hornets' offense!

The camera focused on Chris Paul; his expression had become incredibly serious, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

The moment Chris Paul received the ball in the backcourt, Chen Hao had already appeared in front of him.

Chen Hao was guarding Chris Paul full-court!

When Chris Paul saw Chen Hao appear in front of him, his eyes instantly became incredibly gloomy.

But Chris Paul also knew Chen Hao's stealing ability, so he didn't force it.

He immediately passed the ball to a teammate who was coming to receive it, not dribbling it across half-court himself.

Seeing Chris Paul's choice, Chen Hao's expression became playful.

It seems Chris Paul is also starting to get serious; this is getting interesting!

Chris Paul quickly ran to the frontcourt and circled out to receive the ball again!

The moment he received the ball, Chen Hao had already appeared in front of him.

Chris Paul's ball-handling was very good; he knew Chen Hao's hands were quick.

However, even though Chris Paul had made ample preparations, when he started to dribble, Chen Hao's hand swiftly appeared in front of the basketball!

Chen Hao's speed in going for the ball was simply too fast!

Chris Paul had been careful enough, but he was still stolen by Chen Hao!

After successfully stealing the ball, Chen Hao quickly dribbled it towards the frontcourt!

This time, Chen Hao didn't give Chris Paul any chance to chase; he was in a league of his own, easily completing a fast-break dunk for points!

After the dunk, Chen Hao spread his hands to Chris Paul, who had just caught up, and said:

"Why are you only just getting back?

Too slow!

Be quicker next time!"

Chen Hao's words made Chris Paul clench his fists!

He genuinely wanted to give Chen Hao a 'cannon punch' warning!

Little did he know, Chen Hao was also anticipating Chris Paul's punch; he wouldn't mind putting Chris Paul to sleep.

Ultimately, Chris Paul maintained his composure and didn't lay a hand on Chen Hao.

For this offensive possession, he chose a more conservative approach; after passing the ball to a teammate, he and his teammate engaged in off-ball screens.

His teammate used an off-ball screen to block Chen Haobehind him, creating an opportunity for Chris Paul to receive the ball.

After shaking off Chen Hao's defense, Chris Paul finally had a chance to shoot!

Facing West's defense, he directly opted for a step-back pull-up jump shot!

This was Chris Paul's most proficient offensive move; although he wasn't tall, his speed was very fast, easily shaking off West!

This shot was completely uncontested!

Just as Chris Paul thought he could finally score, an unexpected event occurred!

Chen Hao actually flew out from beside him, leaping high and directly swatting the basketball out of bounds!

The basketball, blocked by Chen Hao, flew directly towards the spectators by the court!

It was precisely in Laurence's direction!

Facing the flying basketball, Laurence did not panic like ordinary spectators; instead, she calmly extended both hands and easily caught the ball!

Chen Hao's block had a lot of force, so when Laurencecaught the basketball, a look of shock appeared on her face.

If she didn't play basketball frequently, she might not have been able to catch a ball flying at such a speed.

In fact, Chen Hao's block was aimed at Laurence.

As for Chris Paul, he was completely a tool.

As long as Chen Hao wanted to, he could block Chris Paul, from any direction!

After Laurence caught the basketball, Chen Hao walked to the sideline with a smile, gesturing for the ball to Laurence.

When Laurence saw Chen Hao's gesture, an excited expression also appeared on her face, and she quickly passed the ball to Chen Hao.

Chen Hao caught the basketball, made a very shocked expression, and even exaggeratedly took two steps back.

Clearly, his actions were telling Laurence that her pass had a lot of force!

Laurence saw Chen Hao's gesture, and her smile became even more uninhibited; she even directly flexed her bicep at Chen Hao!

And when Chen Hao saw Laurence flex her bicep, his expression became even more shocked!

He passed the ball back to Laurence again, and she once again caught it steadily!

Chen Hao's expression once again became incredibly stunned!

Laurence was very excited by Chen Hao's teasing, and she once again powerfully passed the ball back to Chen Hao!

The interaction between Chen Hao and Laurence made all the Hornets' players grit their teeth, and the home Fans angrily cursed at the two of them.

Even the referee couldn't stand it anymore and directly called a technical foul on Chen Hao!

The reason was delay of game!

Chen Hao felt very wronged by the referee's technical foul; he helplessly shrugged at Laurence, then returned the ball to the referee.

During this process, Chris Paul was almost driven to death by Chen Hao!

This guy was actually playing around?

This made him even more annoyed with Chen Hao!

Hornets' offense again!

Chris Paul was clearly fired up this time!

Using Chandler's screen, he directly charged into the paint with a 'bomb pack,' attempting to draw a foul from the Celtics' interior players.

However, the moment he jumped to shoot, Chen Haoappeared in front of him again, and both his palms were firmly pressed on the basketball!

He directly knocked Chris Paul, man and ball, to the ground!

Chris Paul fell heavily to the ground; since he landed on his backside first, he felt like his butt was going to burst!

Chen Hao's help defense block this time was very clean, so the referee had no call!

This completely enraged Chris Paul!

He immediately yelled loudly at the referee:

"Damn it!

That guy fouled!

Are you blind?

You're not calling that?!"

At the same time, his fists were clenched, and he had even raised them.

Looking like he was about to beat up the referee!

And when Chen Hao saw this scene, he instantly couldn't hold back!

Wasn't the famous scene here?

Was this the so-called 'cannon punch' warning?

The referee didn't tolerate Chris Paul either and directly called a technical foul on him!

Now, Chris Paul had accumulated two technical fouls and was to be ejected from the game!

At this moment, Chen Hao said with a look of disappointment:

"What a pity!

To be ejected so soon!

I still wanted to teach you a good lesson!

Now there's no chance!"

Chris Paul's mood was already sufficiently depressed and Frustrated.

Chen Hao actually dared to provoke him at this moment, and his raised fist finally fell!

Not at the referee, but at Chen Hao!

As this punch landed, a sinister smile had already appeared on Chris Paul's face!

Little did he know, the next moment, he wouldn't be able to smile!

Chen Hao gripped his fist tightly with one hand!

And said with a playful expression:

"I've been waiting for this punch of yours for a long time!"

With a squeeze, Chris Paul's expression instantly became distorted, and he finally cried out in pain!

But Chen Hao did not let go because of this; instead, he squeezed even harder!

Only when the referee arrived did Chen Hao release his hand, saying with a regretful expression:

"Referee, you saw it, he started it, I just grabbed his fist!

I didn't do anything!"

Referee: "..."

Chris Paul felt like the bones in his fist were about to shatter; at that moment, he had no time to blame Chen Hao.

Instead, he clutched his right hand in pain, almost crying!

Chris Paul tried to gain an advantage but ended up losing more; not only did he fail to take down Chen Hao, but he also had his hand bones crushed by Chen Hao and left the court dejectedly.

After Chris Paul was ejected, the Hornets completely lost their backbone, and their offense began to struggle.

Chen Hao seized the opportunity to lead his teammates on a scoring run, giving the Hornets no chance at all.

Finally, Chen Hao meticulously controlled the score; at the end of the game, it was 82:140!

The Celtics crushed the Hornets by 58 points, in homage to the '58 Cannon Punch'!

After the game, Chen Hao, under the gaze of numerous home Fans, casually put his arm around Laurence's shoulder and left the Stadium!

Chapter 110 Chen Hao said to Laurence, who wanted to learn the hook shot technique, "Can you handle my microphone?"

If Chen Hao leading his team to a 58-point victory over the Hornets was news, then the sight of him leaving the Stadium with Laurence's arm around his shoulder after the game was a complete and utter fact.

Laurence had only just turned eighteen, so how did this Chen Hao get involved with her?

Moreover, before this, there had been no rumors of her and Chen Hao, so why were they arm-in-arm directly after the game?

All the Fans couldn't understand what was happening, why Chen Hao had such good luck with women.

It was one thing to dominate on the court, but he also dominated women off the court. For male Fans, this was truly enviable!

As for Laurence's Fans, they cried out in pain:

"He's really despicable! Wasn't taylor just 'harmed' by him?"

"This guy, can he not play basketball without women?"

"Is there a possibility that this guy really relies on women to maintain his form?"

"Very likely. Does that mean that to defeat him, you just need to defeat his women?"

"The problem is, how do you defeat his women? And do you even know who his women are?"

Chen Hao naturally ignored these jealous male Fans.

Because he now had more important things to do, which was to impart the basketball techniques he had learned to Laurence.

Chen Hao naturally would not disappoint Laurence's eagerness to learn.

Especially since she really wanted to learn the hook shot technique, as she felt it was very useful.

In Laurence's opinion, in women's basketball games, besides shooting, the hook shot technique was equally important.

Because female athletes' physical qualities are not as explosive as men's, using a hook shot during a game makes it impossible for opponents to block her.

This hook shot technique, which can prevent opponents from blocking, becomes crucial.

Moreover, Laurence felt that once she learned the hook shot technique, she would definitely be able to dominate in celebrity basketball games.

Chen Hao fully agreed with Laurence's view on this, as it was indeed a very practical scoring skill.

So, Chen Hao took Laurence to the hotel where he was staying.

The hotel room where Chen Hao stayed was very large, with enough space to learn various basketball techniques.

To prevent Laurence from getting injured while learning basketball techniques, Chen Hao pushed two large beds together to form a mattress basketball court.

The purpose of this was to better teach Laurencebasketball techniques.

With Laurence's eager eyes, Chen Hao began to personally teach her the hook shot.

"First, you need to know the technical movements of the hook shot; the hand shape is very crucial!

In fact, just like with shooting, the most important part of the hook shot are two fingers!

The middle finger and the ring finger!

That's right, just like my current hand gesture!

Secondly, the wrist is also very important!

Because at the moment of releasing the hook shot, the wrist determines the force with which the basketball is thrown!

Therefore, the strength of the fingers and the strength of the wrist must be combined very appropriately.

Only then can you master the hook shot technique!

I'll demonstrate a few times for you now, and then you can start practicing.

I will be by your side to correct your movements!"

After saying that, Chen Hao began to demonstrate his hook shot movement.

Chen Hao's personal demonstration made Laurenceexclaim repeatedly because Chen Hao's movements were truly too standard.

And the flick of his wrist at the moment he released the hook shot was so gentle, it truly looked pleasing to the eye.

So, Laurence couldn't help but shout out!

After Chen Hao demonstrated a few times, he gestured for Laurence to start learning herself:

"Alright, the theoretical knowledge has been passed on to you!

You can now start learning properly!

Show me what you've got!"

Laurence was indeed full of confidence in herself now.

Because Chen Hao had already taught her all the techniques, she believed that with her comprehension, she could easily learn this hook shot technique.

However, when she actually started learning, she realized that she had underestimated the difficulty of this hook shot technique.

After several consecutive practice sessions, she was frustrated to find that mastering the hook shot was truly not simple.

Firstly, she couldn't see her own shooting motion.

So she had no idea if her movements were correct or not.

Secondly, she felt her wrist was very stiff, and her fingers also lacked strength, especially when exerting instantaneous force, she couldn't flick the ball out easily at all!

"This is too difficult!"

Laurence complained somewhat dejectedly; this indeed greatly dampened her self-confidence.

Chen Hao chuckled and teased:

"If it were really that easy, wouldn't everyone be a basketball star?

Your physical condition is quite good.

And you also have good talent.

Your fingers are long and slender, and your wrist strength is also good.

All you lack is practice, constant practice.

How about this, let's start with finger strength training first!

Here, hold this!"

Chen Hao took out his tungsten-titanium alloy microphone and gestured for Laurence to hold it!

When Laurence saw the microphone, her eyes nearly popped out!

"Oh my God! This practice tool is too scary!

I've never seen a microphone like this!

I can't even get one hand around it!

I feel like I can't handle it!"

Chen Hao's expression was very calm regarding Laurence's shock:

"This is my secret weapon!

If you can handle this microphone, then you can basically improve your finger strength!

The main thing is grip strength!

Practice it well!"

Laurence followed Chen Hao's request and began to practice her grip strength using the microphone Chen Haoprovided.

It must be said that the microphone Chen Hao provided was truly very interesting.

The quality of this microphone was really good.

Laurence even felt her throat itch during her grip strength practice and started singing a few songs, which kept the training from being too monotonous.

Chen Hao did not stop her; after all, this was beneficial for the training's progress.

After continuously practicing grip strength for one or two hours, Laurence only felt her hands were very sore and didn't feel any progress.

Chen Hao smiled and explained:

"Don't worry!

Once your fingers recover, you'll feel that your fingers have strength!

Now, let's do some leg exercises!

You squat down now, stand in front of me!

I'll show you how to train your lower body strength!"

Laurence unconditionally obeyed Chen Hao's request; after all, she was the one who actively wanted to learn basketball techniques from Chen Hao.

Since Chen Hao requested it, she had to cooperate fully.

Moreover, she also clearly understood that lower body strength was equally important for basketball.

"That's right, you need to maintain a half-squat position now, fully engaging your thighs!

Then, combine it with the grip strength training from before, and do grip exercises!

After all, in basketball games, all muscles throughout the body are required to work together!"

Laurence felt soreness in her thighs; Chen Hao's training volume was indeed too high.

However, she was not discouraged by this; instead, she found it very effective.

"Besides his outstanding physical talent, this guy is truly a genius!"

Chapter 111: Post-Game Stretching

After another hour of lower body strength training, Laurence's physical endurance was completely depleted.

And Chen Hao finally allowed her to rest.

Laurence, having gotten her rest, collapsed onto the large bed.

At this moment, she admired Chen Hao even more.

"Your stamina seems to be completely undiminished?

Didn't you just finish a game?"

To Laurence's astonishment, Chen Hao calmly said:

"You know, this was just a regular season game, and the Charlotte Hornets aren't a strong team.

The stamina I expended in this game was even less than what I used teaching you basketball skills!"

Chen Hao's words made Laurence burst into laughter:

"If the Charlotte Hornets players knew what you said, they'd definitely be even more depressed!

By the way, your agility is incredible, isn't it?

I saw many netizens suggesting you participate in fighting competitions.

They said you have a lot of talent."

Laurence truly cared about Chen Hao, and she paid close attention to any news about him.

So, she was very interested in the suggestions netizens made.

Now that she finally had the chance to be alone with Chen Hao, of course she wanted to ask for clarification.

To Laurence's inquiry, Chen Hao chuckled and teased:

"It's not impossible!

But for now, the main task is to play well in the regular season.

Wait until the off-season!

We can play around then!

Are you interested in sparring with me in mixed martial arts?

The kind with ground grappling!"

Chen Hao's teasing made Laurence very excited:

"Of course!

I can be your training partner!

My lower body strength is quite good!"

Laurence was clearly very tired now, but she was still very stubborn.

For such stubborn women, Chen Hao had ways to deal with them.

After letting Laurence rest for half an hour, Chen Haobegan to urge her to practice upper body strength.

The so-called upper body strength training actually mainly involved pectoral muscle exercises.

Because the pectoral muscles are also involved in the basketball shooting motion.

If the pectoral muscles are not strong enough, it often leads to weak shots, or even air balls.

So, Chen Hao began to teach Laurence how to correctly train her pectoral muscles for strength.

Given that Laurence was a woman, the pectoral muscle strength training Chen Hao designed for her was primarily kneeling push-ups.

This was a beginner training mode; once she adapted to the intensity of kneeling push-ups, Chen Hao would require her to perform actual push-ups.

Laurence was clearly very confident in her strength, and she did kneeling push-ups very vigorously.

Chen Hao watched her do twenty in one go, and his expression became playful.

Because push-ups require balanced exertion, if she did them so vigorously now, she would quickly run out of strength.

"You did very well just now, but there are still some flaws in your movements.

Continue doing them now, and I'll correct your form from behind you!"

As he spoke, Chen Hao had already moved behind Laurence, standing with his feet apart above her.

Laurence followed Chen Hao's instructions and slowly began to do push-ups.

Chen Hao wrapped his hands around her pectoral muscles and indicated for her to exert force in the corresponding areas.

Laurence's eyes instantly brightened, and she even shouted in a surprised tone:

"Oh! Yes! I really felt the force being exerted in that spot!

Fuck!

You're truly amazing!

This is so exhilarating!"

Laurence's shouts made Chen Hao look helpless, after all, such shouts could easily lead to imaginative thoughts.

However, Laurence didn't feel anything was inappropriate; she even suggested taking off some of her clothes.

After all, she was wearing quite a lot of clothes, and the hotel's heating was already on.

So now Laurence was drenched in sweat.

Of course, Chen Hao had no objections to this.

So, Laurence, without avoiding Chen Hao's gaze, directly changed into a Yoga outfit.

Chen Hao clearly saw that for convenience, Laurence was wearing a one-piece Yoga suit.

Was this for training?

Was this testing his, Chen Hao's, self-control?

Using this to test an official?

Who could resist!

So, when Laurence changed into the tight Yoga outfit, Chen Hao solemnly said to her:

"Your workout volume was already very high!

If you don't do some post-exercise stretching and massage, you might experience muscle soreness tomorrow!

So, let's end today's training here!

I'll do some stretching for you to relax your muscles!

And of course, some muscle massage; lie on the bed first!"

Laurence completely trusted Chen Hao, so she lay on the bed as he requested.

Thus, Chen Hao began to relax and stretch Laurence's muscles.

Chen Hao's large hands made Laurence feel the pleasure of stretching and massage, and she occasionally let out a satisfying groan.

Although Laurence's volume was not as loud as the tennis queen Sharapova, it had a different kind of flavor.

As the massage and stretching deepened, Chen Haogradually got to the main point.

"Now, I'm going to relax your sphincter muscles too!

Please don't be nervous!"

"Okay. I'm not nervous."

Laurence's voice seemed to falter slightly, and her voice was even a little shaky.

But she did not refuse Chen Hao's request.

Next, Chen Hao used his tungsten-titanium alloy fingers to thoroughly relax all of Laurence's muscles, including her sphincter muscles.

And Laurence herself felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

She had never imagined that post-exercise body relaxation could be so comfortable.

Especially Chen Hao's large hands, which possessed infinite magic, making her unable to stop.

Even every one of Chen Hao's fingers made Laurence's body tremble with happiness.

Finally, Laurence, holding the tungsten-titanium alloy microphone, sang a song, and then finally ended this exercise stretching.

After the stretching ended, Laurence, still wanting more, asked:

"Will I have another chance to learn basketball skills with you?

I hope you can become my personal coach!"

"You should know, for me to become your personal coach, you will have to pay a great price!"

"I can pay any price!"

Laurence didn't hesitate at all and immediately agreed.

Chen Hao was naturally very satisfied with Laurence's straightforwardness:

"Since that's the case, then I agree to become your personal coach!

In return, the price you have to pay is to accompany me on away games!

Whenever there's an away game, you have to come with me!

And, for every game, you have to watch it live.

This will be very helpful for your skill improvement!"

"That's wonderful!

This is also the life I've always dreamed of!"

And so, Laurence and Chen Hao reached an agreement.

In order to continue learning basketball skills and exercise methods with Chen Hao, Laurence would accompany Chen Hao on all subsequent away games.

Of course, if it was a home game, Laurence wouldn't have to travel so much.

Although she was just eighteen years old, her net worth was not low.

After all, as a future Hollywood starlet, she still had considerable wealth.

So, after this night, Laurence had already decided to purchase a villa in Boston to facilitate her future learning of skills with Chen Hao.

And after defeating the Charlotte Hornets, the feud between Chen Hao and Paul was completely established!

Moreover, Paul's nickname arrived early.

What made Chen Hao laugh and cry was that netizens gave Paul the nickname "58".

This was a year earlier than the "58" nickname in Chen Hao's memory.

And after Paul sobered up, he also gritted his teeth and said:

"That damn guy, I will definitely find an opportunity to get revenge!"

At this time, Chen Hao had already boarded a flight to the Denver Plateau.

Of course, Jennifer Lawrence, Chen Hao's indoor female disciple, was also with him!

Chapter 112: With So Much Money, Of Course You Have to Spend It! Private Jet Arranged! Nightclub Battle!

However, Jennifer Lawrence, although also heading to the Denver Plateau, did not take the same flight as Chen Hao.

After all, the team always travels to away games together, and bringing different attendants doesn't seem like a good habit.

So, Chen Hao had already started thinking about purchasing a private jet.

Although Laurence would crash and die in the near future, Chen Hao was not worried about such a thing happening to him.

After all, with his Tungsten-Titanium Alloy Constitution, even if he did encounter a plane crash, he believed it would only scorch his clothes.

As for his life, there was absolutely no need to worry.

Although private jets are expensive, for Chen Hao now, it wasn't a very large expense.

He currently holds endorsement contracts worth hundreds of millions, and every day different businesses approach him wanting to collaborate.

So, Chen Hao truly doesn't lack money; it's just that he's busy playing games and genuinely doesn't have time to properly manage his assets.

In fact, besides purchasing several luxury homes in Boston, Chen Hao hadn't really thought about how to handle his wealth.

After all, his cash on hand has already exceeded fifty million usd, so buying a private jet shouldn't be a problem.

By then, he could take his private jet to different away games.

There would be no need to squeeze into a cramped commercial plane with his teammates.

Similarly, his disciple, Laurence, could also take his private jet.

Having a thrilling pickup game on his private jet also seemed like a good option.

Thinking of this, Chen Hao had already made up his mind to thoroughly investigate the private jet market after this game.

After all, after this game, he would get a valuable three-day rest period, which was a good opportunity for investigation.

By the time the Celtics players arrived at the Denver Plateau, it was already evening, and the game would be played tomorrow night.

So, the Celtics still had one day to rest.

And the team would no longer arrange collective training, which was very good news for the Celtics players.

So, at Jefferson's call, all the Celtics players would gather for team building at a famous local nightclub.

Chen Hao originally wanted to refuse, but this time even Head Coach Rivers participated, so he had no reason to refuse.

Therefore, this was the first time in the Celtics' history that they had a fully attended nightclub gathering.

Of course, there were exceptions; Rondo and Pierce, though traveling with the team, actually no longer had opportunities to play.

The free market has now opened, and Celtics General Manager Angie is negotiating with multiple teams.

These negotiations are all about the trade chips for Rondoand Pierce.

And the entire free market is quite interested in Rondoand Pierce, especially the Lakers.

The Lakers now not only lack a point guard but also a corresponding scorer.

So Rondo and Pierce naturally became their targets for contention.

But for Angie, the chips offered by the Lakers were not very good.

They could only send out Odom and Vujacic, among others, and were unwilling to use Bynum, an interior player, as a chip.

And what Angie needs now is an interior player with immediate combat power, preferably one with good potential.

His idea is that this interior player could form a good partnership with Chen Hao and bring more vitality to the Celtics' interior.

Of course, this is not to say that Jefferson's current interior strength is poor, but once he rests, the Celtics' interior will still be very empty.

If another interior player could step in, it would be quite perfect for the Celtics' lineup.

So, Angie had actually seriously considered the suggestion Chen Hao gave him.

Why not consider A'lian as an option? Although he is only a rookie, his shooting ability is still online.

Especially his mid-range shooting, his touch is quite soft.

As for his somewhat thin physique, Chen Hao patted his chest and assured Angie that he could train A'lian into a muscular demon.

This was the least of their worries.

And Angie did indeed conduct a key investigation into A'lian, even studying his game footage from the Dragon Country CBA.

Although Chen Hao vouched for A'lian, as the team's general manager, he still had to be responsible to the owner and the team.

After Angie conducted a comprehensive investigation and understanding of Chen Hao, he was pleasantly surprised to find that Chen Hao's words were indeed very reasonable.

A'lian's potential and talent are still there; his drawback is that he is not good at communicating with teammates, which led to him not getting too many opportunities with the Bucks.

But if he came to the Celtics and became teammates with Chen Hao, his compatriot, the situation would be completely different.

Chen Hao and he share a common cultural background and the same language, and their relationship is quite good.

So, communication would naturally be seamless.

In this way, the two would certainly quickly form a good understanding, which would greatly benefit the team.

So, Angie has already made A'lian a priority trade target.

Of course, Angie also knows that A'lian is not worth Rondo and Pierce.

So he will split Rondo and Pierce into separate trades, using Rondo or Pierce to trade for Chen Hao.

As for the rest, it could actually be considered trading him to the Lakers.

Because Odom's strength is indeed commendable; he can be a very good ball-handling forward.

This would also be a very good reinforcement for the Celtics.

After finalizing the trade targets, Angie began his negotiation journey.

The Celtics players, of course, were unaware of all this.

And right now, they were having a wild time at the nightclub.

Little did they know, as they were having fun, the Nuggets players also appeared at this nightclub.

After all, it was the most famous nightclub in all of Denver, so it was quite normal to attract so many high-end clients.

Thus, the two teams met the day before the game!

The star players leading the Nuggets this time were "Sweet Pea" Anthony and "The Answer" Iverson.

These two, forming the "Golden Double Guns," had stirred up a scoring storm in the league.

So their relationship is very good now, and they are almost inseparable when going out to nightclubs.

Especially Anthony, ever since Iverson joined the DenverNuggets, he didn't even want to go home, spending every day hanging out with Iverson.

This had caused his beautiful wife, Lala, at home to have some complaints.

So, Lala had been virtually alone in her room for the past few months, which had made her quite resentful of Anthony.

When Anthony and Iverson learned that the largest private room in the nightclub had been booked by the Celtics players, their expressions turned ugly:

"Hey, don't you guys know our habits?

That private room has always been reserved for us!

Especially before and after games, we always come here to have fun.

How could you give that room to them?"

It was Anthony and Iverson's younger brother, JR Smith, who spoke.

At this moment, he was still a small fry, fond of strutting around behind his two big brothers.

And the nightclub manager, Mike, looked very troubled at this moment, repeatedly smiling apologetically:

"Hey, my good brothers, why didn't you let me know in advance that you were coming?

I would have arranged it!

They're having fun now, and it's not good for me to kick them out!

How about this, another private room, the same size!

I'll give you a fifty percent discount on tonight's room fee!

How does that sound?"

Little did he know, Mike's words made Anthony and Iverson's faces turn even uglier!

"Are you mocking us for not being able to afford it?"

Chapter 113: Before the Game, Spar with the NuggetsPlayers! It's a friendly match, so a few bruises are reasonable, right?

The person who spoke was still JR Smith.

After all, as a sidekick, he had to have the awareness of a sidekick.

His words made the nightclub manager's expression turn very awkward:

"Hey, how could I mean that?"

"But they were here first, and if I ask them to move now, I really can't bring myself to do it!"

"Actually, both private rooms are the same size, there's really no difference!"

The nightclub manager was almost in tears; he didn't dare offend any of these 'living ancestors'!

And he hadn't expected the Nuggets players to react so strongly after hearing that the private room had been booked by the Boston Celtics players.

But they couldn't just kick them out to another private room, could they?

That wouldn't be reasonable at all!

Just then, Iverson spoke up:

"Hey, bro, you're right."

"But we want that private room right now."

"So, why don't you go in and tell them."

"Just say we'll pay double the price for them to switch private rooms?"

"And you'll get a good tip too!"

Iverson's words made the Nuggets players burst into laughter.

Clearly, they were deliberately looking for trouble with the Boston Celtics, after all, this was the Denver Plateau, their home turf.

What's wrong with making them move?

Besides, paying double the price was already giving them a lot of face!

Nightclub manager Mike's expression, after hearing Iverson's words, became even more rigid:

"This! This! How can I say this!"

But when he saw Iverson's playful gaze, he knew he couldn't escape this one.

Helplessly, he could only choose to accept Iverson's suggestion and tentatively go inquire about the Boston Celtics players' opinions.

So, under the watchful eyes of many Nuggets players, Mike nervously knocked on the door of the Boston Celtics' private room.

Inside the private room, many Boston Celtics players were having a good time, only Chen Hao sat quietly in a corner of the sofa.

Almost every other player was embracing a young, curvaceous girl, but unfortunately, most of them were dark-skinned.

So, this was why Chen Hao was sitting quietly.

In fact, his teammates had also encouraged girls to interact with Chen Hao, but he politely declined, stating that he was fine just sitting.

Given Chen Hao's politeness, his teammates didn't push him, after all, this guy had plenty of girls outside the club.

It seemed perfectly normal for him not to be interested in the girls here.

Just then, the private room door opened.

Nightclub manager Mike's eyesight was still quite good; he had long known that Chen Hao was the decision-maker in this team.

Although he was currently sitting quietly on the sofa, Mike knew that if Chen Hao agreed to this matter, it would be equivalent to the entire Boston Celtics agreeing.

So he approached Chen Hao with a brilliant smile, holding a full glass of cocktail.

"Hey, Chen, I toast you!"

"I absolutely love watching your games!"

"I'm your number one fan!"

"Your performance is truly incredible!"

Regarding Mike's flattery, Chen Hao teased playfully:

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the Denver Plateau."

"Shouldn't your home team be the Denver Nuggets?"

"How did I become your number one fan?"

Chen Hao's words made Mike's expression a bit awkward, but he still said with a forced smile:

"Although our home team is the Denver Nuggets, it doesn't prevent me from liking you!"

Chen Hao looked at Mike quietly, noncommittally; he felt that Mike probably had more to say.

And Mike was also observing Chen Hao's expression, and after realizing that Chen Hao wasn't showing too much impatience, he knew the time was ripe.

So, Mike continued:

"Hey, Chen, there's something I want to ask you about."

"I wonder if you could consider it?"

Indeed, flattery without reason always hides ulterior motives.

This dark-skinned man must have encountered something, which is why he sought out Chen Hao.

"Tell me about it!"

So, Mike relayed Iverson's request from the Nuggets, constantly observing Chen Hao's facial reactions as he spoke.

To Mike's slight relief, Chen Hao listened with a faint smile throughout.

Especially when Mike mentioned that Iverson was willing to pay them double the price, he noticed Chen Hao's eyes instantly light up!

"There's a chance!"

Mike was overjoyed!

If he could really get them to willingly switch private rooms, not only would the Boston Celtics players get corresponding benefits, but he would also get more tips!

Now, Mike even started to be grateful for Iverson's series of suggestions!

"So, what do you think of this suggestion?"

Finally, Mike asked the most crucial question.

Chen Hao didn't answer Mike's question immediately; instead, he asked him a question in return:

"I want to ask you a question first. If your answer satisfies me, then I'll agree to his proposal!"

"Okay, okay, then ask quickly!"

Mike's expression was very excited; he had already made up his mind that no matter what Chen Hao asked, he would comply with his wishes.

"My question is simple: in tomorrow's game, how many points do you think we can win against the Nuggets?"

Mike's previously beaming face instantly stiffened!

He never expected Chen Hao to ask such a question.

In his heart, he actually supported the Nuggets for tomorrow's game; he hoped the Nuggets would win.

After all, they were the home team of the Denver Plateau.

But now that Chen Hao asked this question, he couldn't say he supported the Nuggets!

Moreover, Chen Hao asked how many points the Boston Celtics could win by, not who would win!

From the very beginning, Chen Hao never thought their Boston Celtics would lose!

This question was difficult to answer!

But in this situation, he had to go along with Chen Hao's wishes, otherwise, things would get difficult!

So, Mike forced a smile and said:

"I predict you'll win by at least 10 points against the Nuggets tomorrow!"

Mike's answer didn't seem to satisfy Chen Hao; instead, he encouraged him, saying:

"Be bolder! Think again!"

"Then, a big win by over 20 points?"

Mike asked in an inquiring tone.

"It seems you still have considerable feelings for the Nuggets!"

"However, since you've already answered my question, I will naturally agree to your suggestion!"

"But I have one more condition!"

Mike was so excited he almost jumped up:

"No problem, tell me, what is it?"

"The words you just said about us winning by over 20 points against the Nuggets, I want you to say them again in front of the Nuggets players later!"

"Then, we'll immediately move to another private room!"

"Is that okay?"

Mike's mouth, which was almost crooked from smiling, finally became serious.

He never dreamed that Chen Hao's request would be this.

Isn't this asking him to die?

Could he really say those words in front of the Nuggetsplayers?

If that bunch of brutes heard what he said, wouldn't they beat him to death?

Mike finally understood why this yellow-skinned man in front of him could become the backbone of the Boston Celtics.

This guy was incredibly sly!

What should he do now?

Mike was almost in tears!

Just as Mike was feeling incredibly distressed, the private room door was suddenly crashed open!

Chapter 114: Society's Carmelo, a ruthless man of few words? That depends on who he's up against! Carmelogot beaten into submission!

The Boston Celtics players, who were in the middle of a good time, were startled by a sudden door crash.

Everyone looked towards the private room's entrance!

Leading the way were the Denver Nuggets' Anthony and Iverson!

Behind the two of them were other Nuggets players, with JR Smith standing right behind Anthony.

The most shocked was Mike!

He couldn't understand why the Nuggets players would break in at this moment; hadn't they agreed that he would act as a go-between?

Why didn't they wait for his news and just burst in?

Originally, the situation wasn't that serious, but now, things were definitely going to escalate!

From his conversation with Chen Hao just now, Mike had already realized that Chen Hao was not someone to be trifled with.

Now, the Nuggets players had barged in without a word, which was absolutely going to cause trouble!

Mike, who had originally wanted to earn a generous tip from the Nuggets' Iverson, was now worried about a major conflict breaking out.

When Chen Hao saw Anthony standing at the private room's entrance, a brilliant smile appeared on his face.

He had originally planned to have a good back-and-forth with Society's Carmelo, but now it seemed it would be a direct confrontation.

As expected of Society's Carmelo, even crashing a party was so domineering.

At this moment, Chen Hao had already risen from the sofa and was walking towards the private room's entrance.

As for Anthony, he directly yelled at Jefferson:

"Hey, Al, we've booked this place!

You guys go play in the private room next door!

All expenses are on my tab!"

When Anthony said this, his face was full of playful mockery.

His tone was not a suggestion, but a notification!

This condescending tone made Jefferson very displeased!

"Damn it! Carmelo, what do you guys want to do?

We were here first!

And we don't need you to pay!

Get out of here!"

Jefferson still had a temper, especially when facing these impolite guys; of course, he wouldn't be polite at all.

When Anthony heard Jefferson's words, his expression seemed very disappointed:

"Hey, Al, I've been polite enough!

This is the Denver Plateau!

This isn't your Boston!

This is where we always have a good time!

I've given you enough face; I hope you don't fail to appreciate my kindness!"

Anthony's words made the Boston Celtics players' faces turn extremely ugly.

At the same time, JR stepped forward and walked in front of Jefferson, looking at him disdainfully and saying:

"Hey, Al, listen to my advice and leave quickly!

This isn't Boston; Carmelo has a large group of gang brothers here locally!

If you still want to play tomorrow's game in one piece, then leave quickly!

Besides, you won't have any losses!"

JR's words made the other Nuggets players burst into laughter, and Camby also walked out from behind Iverson, smiling and saying to Jefferson:

"JR is right, you guys should get out of here quickly!

You're not welcome here!

But The Answer said you can have a good time in the private room next door!

This is our courtesy to you; don't be so stubborn!

If I were you, I would definitely be incredibly grateful for the option The Answer provided!"

The Boston Celtics' West was almost unable to hold back from rushing up and hitting someone!

These guys were clearly here to cause trouble, yet they acted as if they were thinking of them; if they really followed their arrangements, it would mean they were cowards, and that was absolutely unacceptable!

Just then, Chen Hao appeared in front of the BostonCeltics.

And Mike, at this moment, walked up to Anthony with a fawning smile, saying apologetically:

"Hey, Carmelo, I was just talking to Chen about your request.

Why did you suddenly come in?"

"Your efficiency is too low!

We couldn't wait!

After all, having a good time is very precious!

As for the request I made, as I just said, it's still valid for them!"

When Anthony spoke, his eyes were fixed on Chen Hao, clearly speaking to Chen Hao as well.

And Chen Hao's face always carried a faint smile, not at all angry because of Anthony's unreasonable words.

Chen Hao's smile made Anthony very displeased; he always felt that Chen Hao was looking down on him.

"Hey, you damn guy, what are you laughing at?"

Anthony finally couldn't help but roar at Chen Hao.

And Chen Hao, upon hearing Anthony's questioning, smiled and replied:

"I'm wondering who gave you the courage to try and kick us out?

You know we were here first, don't you follow a first-come, first-served rule?"

Anthony burst into laughter after hearing Chen Hao's words:

"Sorry, on the Denver Plateau, we call the shots!

As for here, you're not welcome!

The fact that we're letting you go to the private room next door is already giving you enough face!

If you don't want to comply, I think we can make you understand what regret is!"

Anthony's blatant threat made the Boston Celtics players incredibly angry; everyone glared at Anthony.

Only Chen Hao remained smiling:

"What if we don't leave?

Do you really dare to lay a hand on us?"

Chen Hao's words made Anthony's face turn incredibly gloomy; he stared intently at Chen Hao, his fists clenched.

Mike, standing by, was terrified by Chen Hao's words; he hastily yelled to stop them:

"Hey, everyone's friends, playing in the NBA, how could anyone come to blows?

Am I right?"

After speaking, Mike quickly looked at Anthony, and motioned for Chen Hao to stop talking.

Because Mike knew very well how much influence Anthony had in Denver.

This guy really had a large group of gang brothers, and Anthony also had a high status within the gang.

Almost every home game, Anthony's brothers would form a cheering squad to cheer him on at the Stadium.

And Anthony even arranged very front-row seats for them, so even if they yelled during the game, the Stadiumsecurity personnel wouldn't dare to say a word.

After all, Anthony's gang brothers, combined, outnumbered the Stadium's security personnel.

Now, Chen Hao dared to provoke Anthony, and even mocked him for not daring to act, wasn't this playing with fire?

Sure enough, Anthony was completely enraged by Chen Hao's words!

He said word by word:

"Are you saying we can't do anything to you?

Do you really think I'm joking with you?

If you leave now, you can still play tomorrow's game.

If you don't leave now, you might not even be able to gather five players to play tomorrow!"

Just as Anthony said this, Chen Hao also smiled and quipped:

"I can guarantee that all of you will be able to play, and I won't let you suffer serious injuries.

I'll just make you remember.

If you insist on fighting, I'm actually quite willing to play with you."

Chen Hao's words even made Iverson, who was standing behind Anthony, unable to help but angrily say:

"Very well, since you've said so, then let me see what you're capable of!

Let's be clear, if you get beaten down, don't be a snitch.

Snitches are really annoying!"

"Of course, I will absolutely not be a snitch!

I'm just wondering, should I make you black and blue, or should I make you limp?"

"Fuck! I've had enough of you!"

Anthony roared and directly threw a punch at Chen Hao's face!

Chapter 115: So you're the one called Answer? Playing dirty? Don't you value your life?

As Anthony made his move, the rest of the Denver Nuggets players also joined the fray.

Chen Hao's attitude was simply too arrogant; he dared to ignore Anthony's threats.

And this guy even said he would leave them bruised and battered?

He didn't even consider whose territory this was. Cambywas the second one to rush forward.

His target was Jefferson; after all, their heights were similar, and they played the same position, so they automatically matched up.

As for JR, he aimed for West, as West had been staring at him with a venomous snake-like gaze, which greatly annoyed him.

Iverson, however, didn't make a move immediately. He wanted to observe the situation first before deciding whether to strike with a thunderous blow.

As for the other Denver Nuggets players, they all joined the battle, and the private room instantly descended into chaos!

At this moment, Mike truly felt like crying without tears!

He hadn't expected things to escalate to this point, especially with Anthony actively attacking Chen Hao; that really blew things out of proportion.

Now, Mike could only hide to the side, waiting for the Denver Nuggets players to deal with the Boston Celticsplayers before cleaning up the mess.

In Mike's understanding, the Boston Celtics players would absolutely not be a match for the Denver Nuggetsplayers.

Because outside the private room, Anthony's gang brothers were still having a good time.

As soon as Anthony gave the order, his gang brothers would swarm in, surrounding the Boston Celtics players.

At that time, Anthony's side would have absolute crushing power!

Just as Mike thought the Denver Nuggets would achieve a crushing victory, something unexpected happened!

Anthony's punch didn't land on Chen Hao's face!

Instead, Anthony's thrown punch was firmly gripped by Chen Hao with one hand!

Anthony was slightly taller than Chen Hao, but the width of his palm was far inferior to Chen Hao's!

Chen Hao's open palm could completely envelop Anthony's fist!

And when Anthony realized his fist was easily held by Chen Hao, his expression became incredibly shocked!

Then, his expression changed from shock to terror!

Because he found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull his fist free from Chen Hao's grip!

Chen Hao's large hand was like an iron clamp, firmly gripping Anthony's fist!

At this point, Anthony realized that he might have kicked an iron plate!

Just then, Chen Hao didn't forget to tease Anthony:

"Hey, why don't you use more force!

Why aren't you using more force!

Did you not eat!

How come you feel even weaker than a woman!"

Chen Hao's words completely enraged Anthony!

He directly raised his other fist and fiercely smashed it towards Chen Hao's face again!

He thought this punch would definitely hit Chen Hao's face, but he didn't expect the result to be the same: it was caught by Chen Hao's other hand!

Both of Anthony's fists were firmly held by Chen Hao, completely unable to move!

As Anthony struggled desperately, he felt intense pain in his fists!

Chen Hao's hands exerted immense gripping force, and Anthony felt his fists were about to be crushed by Chen Hao!

"Ah! Damn it! Let me go!

My bones are going to break!"

Anthony's scream attracted the attention of others!

Except for Chen Hao's one-sided battle, most of the other fights were just both sides grappling, with neither being able to gain an advantage.

After all, there wasn't much difference in their physiques or builds.

And these were basketball players, not boxers; they didn't understand fighting, so their brawls were mostly just grappling.

Now, they all stopped because of Anthony's scream and looked at them!

What they saw was astonishing!

Both of Anthony's fists were firmly held by Chen Hao!

And looking at Anthony's expression, he was in extreme pain!

Iverson, who hadn't made a move until now, also realized the seriousness of the situation. He stared at Chen Hao's hands in shock, and his feet slowly moved towards Chen Hao's back.

Iverson hadn't thought about stopping the fight at this moment, as they hadn't gained any advantage yet.

Anthony was even firmly suppressed by Chen Hao.

So now he had to find an opportunity to ambush Chen Hao and turn the tide of the situation!

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Anthony and Chen Hao, and no one noticed Iverson's movements.

So he quickly circled behind Chen Hao, and at the moment Anthony screamed again, Iverson picked up a wine bottle nearby and fiercely smashed it towards the back of Chen Hao's head!

If that hit, Chen Hao would definitely lose his fighting ability instantly and collapse to the ground!

Iverson had been hanging out in the streets since he was a child, so he had his own understanding of such brawls.

Either don't strike, or if you do, it must be a fatal blow!

As for the consequences of doing so, he hadn't thought about it; he just wanted to take down Chen Hao first!

Little did he know, just as Iverson thought his sneak attack would easily take down Chen Hao, something unexpected happened!

The moment Iverson picked up the wine bottle and smashed it towards the back of his head, Chen Haosuddenly exerted force with both hands, pulling Anthonybehind him!

Anthony instantly came to Chen Hao's back!

And the wine bottle Iverson smashed down accurately hit Anthony's head!

A crisp sound rang out!

Accompanied by Anthony's scream!

Everyone who witnessed this scene was stunned!

Especially Mike, he never dreamed that the final outcome would be like this!

Chen Hao was unharmed, but Anthony, who started the trouble, suffered a terrible fate!

At this moment, Anthony's condition was quite miserable; his face covered in blood, he felt everything in front of him swaying, and he found himself unable to stand steadily!

As for Iverson, he was still holding the broken wine bottle, his face filled with horror!

And at this moment, Chen Hao slowly released his hands, letting Anthony collapse to the ground!

Then, he pulled out his phone from his pocket and took a photo of the terrified Iverson!

While taking the photo, he said to everyone:

"Everyone saw it, right!

Carmelo's injuries were all caused by Answer!

You can tell from the wine bottle in his hand that he was full of dissatisfaction with Carmelo!

I even have photographic evidence!

Now, Answer won't be able to deny it!

As for you guys, do you have any other ideas?"

Chen Hao held his phone and turned to the other Denver Nuggets players.

The Denver Nuggets players were stunned by Chen Hao's actions!

The events unfolded beyond their expectations, and the outcome was far from what they had imagined.

Not only did the Denver Nuggets fail to teach Chen Hao a harsh lesson, but they were also easily counter-killed by Chen Hao!

He even took a photo of it, which made things really serious!

Seeing that no one spoke, Chen Hao looked at JR and said:

"Hey, JR, weren't you very arrogant just now?

Why are you silent now?"

JR felt uncomfortable under Chen Hao's gaze, and his expression became incredibly ugly:

"I was just joking with you guys!

This private room was also wanted by Answer and Carmelo; we were just following their arrangements!"

JR fully demonstrated what it meant to be a fair-weather friend, and Chen Hao's smile grew even wider after hearing his words.

Just then, Iverson, who was behind Chen Hao, actually took the broken wine bottle in his hand and fiercely stabbed it towards Chen Hao's lower back!
